Secondly, Eugene, in an interview with The San Diego Union Tribune, commented that Thanks to the CODA film, he broke the stereotypes of Latino actors in Hollywood.
“I am happy because they are giving me the opportunity to break stereotypes. I complained that when (the directors) called me for being Latino, They always offered me the roles of gardener, drug dealer or criminal. Now that I can represent a music teacher, I feel that I am breaking stereotypes and that will be very useful for the Latino community, ”said the remembered Ludovico Peluche with great emotion.
